The University carries out its research and development activities within the framework of the applied research service model of RIQ & Lead.
The model is based on the service science and service quality perspectives. An essential element of this model is that it builds on the EU, national and local program development of multilevel governance research and innovation, cohesion, small businesses, services and social innovation. The research strategy is tailored to EU programming, refining the actual research tasks into its two-year call cycles.
Profile development, service model development, brand development and community development form the four basic perspectives: professional development of the knowledge economy as a business, creation of service packages, techniques of branding based on new technologies and development of a culture of effective communication and successful behavior.

Its aim is to provide scientific workshops and thus high-quality additional knowledge and creative opportunities for undergraduate students who, in addition to their higher education studies, are ready to raise additional capital to realize their professional and/or scientific career dreams.
